Raymond Weil Nabucco Rivoluzione ChronographBlack is the new black, you know, and the new Raymond Weil Nabucco Rivoluzione chronograph watch is just another way to prove it.The original Raymond Weil Nabucco collection of self-winding mechanical watches was first unveiled more than two years ago.While definitely handsome and well-executed, the Nabucco watches always missed that secret ingredient that transforms a nice watch into an object of desire. I just can’t imagine myself or any other guy saving breakfast money to get one of them for the next Christmas.The new Nabucco Rivoluzione has a good chance to eventually change the fate of the collection for the better.Its 46 mm case is made of titanium and steel and is coated with black PVD, while its sides are decorated with ultra-light carbon-fiber material, which is a breath of fresh air in the world obsessed with ceramics of different colors.Of course, the watch is coming with a matte black dial and black hour and minute hands that are covered with some unidentified black substance, which is supposed to glow in the dark. So do the hour indices.The only hint of color provided with the central second hand and hour and minute hands of the chronograph. As you can see on the photos, the small seconds hand at 9 o’clock is also completely black.To my taste, the white (or light gray) marks on the bezel and all three chronograph totalizers somehow subtract from the watch’s beauty without adding too much legibility, but that’s something I am ready to live with.As to the internal workings of the watch, there is nothing sensational at all. The Raymond Weil Nabucco Rivoluzione watch is powered by a new ETA Valjoux 7753 native chronograph movement, which is both reliable and accurate and features power reserve of 46 hours.The only real problem of this beautiful timepiece is its ridiculously high price tag of around €25,000.

Raymond Weil started its story as a brand of watch manufacturing 30 ago and ever since then the company was run by three generations, all belonging to the same family. Raymond Weil is more than a commercial watch *** brand, Raymond Weil is a family business which will always be run with passion and enthusiasm and whose dedicated employees will make the most of it as to turn a small family business into a watch *** empire. The Swiss brand of Raymond Weil has had as core values three things: aestheticism, modernity and elegance. The impressive elegant design and the highly progressive technical movements promoted by Raymond Weil have paid off, as the Swiss brand of watch manufacturing is nowadays amongst the very best brand in this industry, with incredible timepiece that have remained in the tradition of watch manufacturing and with future timepieces that are likely to make room to new trends and fashionable design. The Raymond Weil Freelancer Collection was extended by another timepiece called the Weil Freelancer Ladies' Chronograph Watch, a timepiece especially created for women and which redefines the terms of elegance and sophistication. The beautiful white design with diamond adornments was especially chosen to express purity and femininity, values which always touch the heart of a woman.The new Raymond Weil Freelancer Ladies' Chronograph watch features a 42 mm in diameter case that although by its size it defies the idea of delicacy, the slimness of the case shows that this watch is definitely appropriate for women. The case is manufactured from stainless steel, whose brilliance goes hand in hand with the adornments from the bezel. The bezel is not the only one adorned with diamonds, so is the case and the lugs uniting the case to the strap. The diamonds express the ultimate proof of sophistication and the choice of their placement was of great inspiration from the part of the designers from Raymond Weil.The dial is quite *** and it features other three sub-dials, measuring the time for the 12 hour counter, the 30 minutes counter and the 60 second counters, positioned symmetrically as to make a ***. The date window is located at the 3 o'clock position, and it provides a long with the current date, the previous day and also the day after. This provides great reliability especially for those women who are engaged in business environments, where the work is all about timing and schedules. The movement activating this new Raymond Weil Freelancer Ladies' Chronograph watch is a self-winding mechanical movement, which generates a 100 meter water resistance and a 46 hour power reserve. The new Raymond Weil Freelancer Ladies' Chronograph watch is available on a leather strap, emphasizing on the elegant appearance of the watch.
